Shawarma Seasoning is a combination of warm, sweet and peppery flavours. It contains cinnamon, nutmeg and mace to name a few ingredients. This spice mix is ideal to use when creating the authentic Middle Eastern Shawarma wrap and has its origins in Lebanon, Turkey and Syria.
The Shawarma wrap contains meat cooked on a spit roast. It is served in soft, fluffy flatbreads with a sesame dressing (tahini) and pickled vegetables.
Cooking meat and fish on a spit to create kebabs is central to Ottoman cuisine. This style of cooking can be seen along streets in the Middle East. We have handcrafted our Shawarma seasoning to help you create authentic Middle Eastern cuisine in your kitchen (spit roast not necessary!).
To recreate, simply marinate chicken using the spices, yoghurt, lemon juice and garlic. The duration of marination can vary, but it is typically recommended to marinate the meat for several hours, or even overnight. This allows the flavours of the seasoning to really penetrate the meat, resulting in a more flavourful end product. Then, grill or roast in the oven. Serve in a wrap or pita, with couscous and salad.
While Shawarma seasoning is most commonly associated with marinating and grilling meat, you can also use it in other dishes too!
Shawarma Spices can also be used to season chicken, red meat such as beef. How about trying with lamb shoulder or chops for a great alternative to a Sunday roast? Or add a Middle Eastern flair to roasted vegetables and grilled fish, as well as using it as a seasoning for rice and hummus.
